 Great teaching technique Mar 15, 2010
My daughter's therapist told me to buy this product and it really helps. She stated it would teach her that there is a beginning and end to everything. She does work for 5 minutes and then I reset it for 15 minutes of her choice of play time. She is 4 years old but at a 2 & 1/2 age span and b/c it is something she can visually see she understands more.....
 good idea poor quality Feb 24, 2010
My son needs a timer to eat and complete tasks in a timely manner. The time worked great for the first 5 times then it stopped. It looks like it was made out of a cheap plastic. I did not think it will last long when it arrived. I am disappointed as I really need a good simple timer like this. It was not worth the price.

only wish it was sturdier Feb 24, 2010
it's true what everyone's written about how flimsy this is. Still, I would buy it again in a heartbeat because it's the only thing like it & it has made my life enormously easier. No more fights. I just set the timer and tell them that they have "x" number of minutes until we have to get dressed for school, and I set the timer so they can see the red running out for them. It's great. My children are 4 and 2 and they can grasp the concept of time/elapsing time with the help of this time timer. We first saw it at my daughter's occupational therapy to help during transitions for children who have sensory processing disorders. The same is true in our home. I even use it for when I want to be on the phone for 20 or 30 minutes and need them to play by themselves until then. (They are still supervised, just not on my lap trying to play with me.) And, I should add, that although my children insist on playing with it themselves when I'm not in the room, it is still working.
Audible alarm too quiet Feb 22, 2010
This is great if you are only using it for visual timing. If you are planning on using the audible alarm, it is way too quiet. I like the little legs on it to stand it up so you can see from across the room. I know it won't last a long time with my son, it's not overly durable, but it serves it's purpose. I wish it was not quite as pricey, as they only last about 3 months in our house.

helping to set limits Feb 06, 2010
I use the time timer all the time with my boys. I like that it has a small beep at the end to let you know time is up, and the visual cue of the red section slowly disappearing is a great motivator for my son during reading time. We use it for timing time outs, independent reading time, and limiting the boys time on the DS or Wii. My boys are 5 and 8 and it really helps set expectations for them.
The only thing I would say is that I do put it up high, and only mom is allowed to touch it, because if it comes crashing to the ground, it could get broken. We had a smaller version of this a few years ago, and after about 6 crashes, it finally did break. Our fault, of course.
